Abstract
Mechanically amorphized graphite partially crystallizes at 1400°C, which is substantially lower than the crystallization temperature of amorphous carbon (soot). The extent of crystallization as a function of milling time shows a maximum in parallel with the maximum in the concentration of iron carbides, which catalyze the low-temperature crystallization.
